Overview
33.14.0 - 33.14.0
<p rend="Plain Text">Achaean envoys achieve nothing at <a class="linkToPlace" target="_blank" href="/place?placename=Rome&groupId=935&placeId=1669">Rome</a> (154/3)</p> <p rend="Plain Text">This excerpt from de legat. gent. belongs to res Italiae of Ol. 156, 3 = 154/3 (see p. 42); but one cannot be certain that the hearing was at the beginning of the consular year 153. For earlier fruitless attempts to secure the release of the detainees see 1. 3 n.</p>
